I will have sections of my blog that I will title “Throwback Adventure”, and will plan on posting them every Thursday. These are journeys we have taken before I started the blog, but are well worth sharing. Many of these Throwback Adventures will include our Buster, who was known for his crazy tail, his happy howl, and his zest for life. We miss him dearly…he is forever in our hearts!
In August 2012 Shadow, Buster, and I Adventured to Riverhills Park in Temple Terrace, Florida. Riverhills Park is located along the Hillsborough River. It includes: a boardwalk, boat landing, tennis courts, and a playground.
We had many trips to the Riverhills Park back when we lived in Tampa, Florida. These particular photographs were taken from a visit in August 2012, our last month in Tampa before relocating to Massachusetts. (I am guessing I may have other photos, but these are the ones I was able to locate). Riverhills Park is a small, but scenic park with a lovely boardwalk along the River lined with cypress trees. We often would visit the Park to walk and relax, and also take a stroll in the lovely neighborhoods surrounding. It is definitely a place I have fond memories of, and hope some day I will be back to reminisce. Not necessarily a Park to travel far to visit, but yet if you are in the area a scenic spot to stop. We loved our Adventures to Riverhills Park. (Throwback Adventures will not always be rated).
The Adventures of Shadow and Wilma 
It is a lovely spot. I lived thirty miles north of Tampa from 1994-1997.

I actually hadn’t heard of San Antonio and had to look it up! I loved living in Tampa!

At the time I lived there, San Antonio’s claim to fame was the annual rattlesnake festival. Needless to say, when that event occurred, I didn’t leave my house.

No way! That sounds horrifying! I saw a rattlesnake once when I lived in Florida when Shadow, Buster, and I were headed to the beach down a trail! Hopefully the last time I see and hear one!

It’s interesting to see the contrast between Florida and New England. You and your friends have seen some fine places.

When I lived in Florida, I was so homesick for deciduous trees. The place just never felt right.
